While Ghana"s population is growing at a faster rate, the resources needed to maintain the population is getting depleted, forest are becoming depleted through agricultural activities and bushfires, fuel wood is being over harvested, game stock is depleted in the forest and, water resources are being exhausted as demand increases, the time to call for sustainability can never be pushed forward any longer, hence the need for immediate intervention. It is in the light of the above that the livelihood context of the fringe communities of the Goaso Forest District was researched into by an interdisciplinary student project of Tropenbos International Ghana.
